NodeExtension (Hazelcast Root 3.4-EA API)

All Known Implementing Classes:

DefaultNodeExtension
```
public interface NodeExtension
```
NodeExtension is a Node extension mechanism to be able to plug different implementations of some modules, like; SerializationService, SocketChannelWrapperFactory etc.

Method Summary

Methods
Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`void`	`afterStart(Node node)` Called after node is started
`void`	`beforeStart(Node node)` Called before node is started
`PacketReader`	`createPacketReader(TcpIpConnection connection, IOService ioService)` Creates a `PacketReader` for given `Connection` instance.
`PacketWriter`	`createPacketWriter(TcpIpConnection connection, IOService ioService)` Creates a `PacketWriter` for given `Connection` instance.
`SerializationService`	`createSerializationService()` Creates a `SerializationService` instance to be used by this `Node`.
`<T> T`	`createService(Class<T> type)` Creates a service which is an implementation of given type parameter.
`void`	`destroy()` Destroys `NodeExtension`.
`MemberSocketInterceptor`	`getMemberSocketInterceptor()` Returns `MemberSocketInterceptor` for this `Node` if available, otherwise returns null.
`Storage<DataRef>`	`getNativeDataStorage()` Deprecated.

`TimedMemberStateFactory`	`getTimedMemberStateFactory()`
`void`	`onThreadStart(Thread thread)` Called on thread start to inject/intercept extension specific logic, like; registering thread in some service, executing a special method before thread starts to do its own task.
`void`	`onThreadStop(Thread thread)` Called before a thread stops to clean/release injected by `onThreadStart(Thread)`.
`void`	`printNodeInfo(Node node)` Called to print node information during startup
